John Calipari has been the subject of many stories over the years, but there is no better writer in America to chronicle his story than Mike DeCourcy of The Sporting News. What we will do here is provide a recap of his five-article series to facilitate the discussion of some of the more significant points of Mike’s effort.
Because of the length concerns, I’ll be breaking these up into a short series, with commentary on about two articles in each.
We’ll be looking at each article in turn, starting with:

The first article in DeCourcy’s series deals a lot with Coach Cal’s time with the New Jersey Nets.
